Biscuits Bulk

Week 3 Review:

Weight: 171lbs (+9lbs)
Libido: definitely lowered
Mood: no change
Sides: back pumps!

Comments:

another lb this morning, not surprised after really good chest session yesterday, had a really good sleep and eating was good, went out for a meal yesterday but had diet coke and it was only a meatball pasta from Frankie and bennys so it fell into my macros anyway.

Did notice some definite backpumps yesterday though, I think they are gonna be unavoidable from nowon, will stop the SD if it gets too much but it's ok for now.

Lacking motivation for leg day (surprise) but dragged my arse here anyway.

Hit some personal bests, the machine squats really helped spur me on, enjoyed those and gt a good pump from them.

Didn't do calves (or abs, shock) but have been doing some calf work at home will try to add them in somewhere else.

Fucking bizarre session, there was a guy doing squats in the only rack when I got in so I did all my warm ups hoping he'd be done by the time I needed it, he wasn't. So I started with some calves since I missed them yesterday then he still wasn't done so I was just gonna hit abs and leave chest for another day but he finished half way through my ab work.

Didn't have enough time for my normal session so just hit 2 chest exercises and finished with that plate Press thing @doink mentioned in the other thread - really liked it, will try with 2 x 5kg plates next time like it was mentioned.

Anyway nothing special I'm confident I could have smashed 8 reps of 100kg bench if it had been fresh but I didn't like the flat bench as much anyway so will go back to my incline bb bench same as usual next time.

Anyway:

Had a bit more of a relaxed weekend, against my will! Lol.

Managed to fit in shoulders and triceps tonight, was going to add biceps in as well and do the as a separate day again but my wrist made a dodgy click while doing heavy hammer curls (knew I should have switched to ez bar for heavy biceps)

So ditched biceps straight away and will see how it is tomorrow.

I superset calved and machine squats, don't know why I thought that would be a good idea.
 
Quick chest session, incline bench at 90kg flew up, felt easy. Even with my dodgy wrist (which is feeling much better today)

Couldn't do cable flies because of the wrist so just did some plate presses after, didn't need much else to be honest.

Quick shoulder/arms session with a bit of benching thrown in with a mate lol.

Managed 110kg bench for 2 reps, the most I've ever ... ever benched, well happy with that!!

Unfortunately after smashing bench I thought I could go and improve on my 'fresh start' OHP lol, nearly broke my back haha.

Did the rest of the workout relatively lightweight, just ticking over really after that, gonna have a bit of a deload week, got 2 weeks away with work so gonna be a bit messed up for a while.
